Patent number: 12039063Abstract: The present technology pertains to a link service that can create, maintain, and service links to objects on behalf of a content management system or other services. The link service can share administration of links with other services when desired or can even allow other services to issue the link and manage the object that is the subject of the link while providing other functions to support the link. Additionally, link service can interface with a file system that can support links as actors in the file system, whereby greater control and flexibility in supporting links is provided. Link service can also accommodate servicing and management of links issued by legacy services, where the legacy services have unique link logic that should still be utilized to maintain a consistent user experience.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2021Date of Patent: July 16, 2024Assignee: Dropbox, Inc.Inventors: Aaron Passey, Fangzhou Wang, Eric Cunningham, Royce Ausburn, Nicholas Larson, David Wetterau, William Ho, Harrison Ho

Patent number: 10809304Abstract: Systems, devices, media, and methods are presented for adaptively estimating power. The systems and methods measure an electrical potential of a power source coupled to a wearable computing device and determine a current power consumption on the power source. The systems and methods identify a current slope value mapping the electrical potential to an estimated capacity percentage based on the measured electrical potential. The systems and methods determine a correction value based on the current power consumption and the current slope value and generate a current capacity value from the electrical potential and the correction value. The systems and methods cause presentation of a representation of the current capacity value within a power indicator and control one or more processes operating within the wearable computing device based on the current capacity value.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2018Date of Patent: October 20, 2020Assignee: Snap Inc.Inventors: Nicholas Larson, Gerald Nilles, Michael Wollman
